Conflicting version information in About screen

Post by vtpeters »

Hi,
I wondered if others noticed the conflicting version information on the About... screen.

After downloading and installing the latest (2.0.0) version the screen on my MacBook Pro M1 reads, amongst other lines, the following:
"MakeMKV v2.0.0 [darwin(arm64-release)]"
"Latest available version: 1.18.3"

This seems a little strange to me. The latest available version to have a lower version number than the actual version of MakeMKV I'm running on my system.

Is this a (minor) bug?

It's trying to encourage you to download the latest (almost) WORKING version. :)

It's better to visit where the older versions are kept, https://www.makemkv.com/download/old/
